HAZARD: INJECTION INJURY

A high pressure paint stream produced by this equipment can pierce the skin and underlying tissues, leading to serious injury and possible amputation. SEE APHYSICIAN IMMEDIATELY.

DO NOT TREAT AN INJECTION INJURY AS A SIMPLE CUT! Injection can lead to amputation. See a physician immediately.

The maximum operating range of the gun is 2800 PSI/193BAR fluid pressure.

PREVENTION:

• NEVER aim the gun at any part of the body.

• NEVER allow any part of the body to touch the fluid stream.

DO NOT allow body to touch a leak in the fluid hose.

• NEVER put your hand in front of the gun. Gloves will not provide protection against an injection injury.

• ALWAYS lock the gun trigger, shut the pump off, and release all pressure before servicing, cleaning the tip or guard, changing tip, or leaving unattended. Pressure will not be released by turning off the motor. The PRIME/SPRAY knob must be turned to PRIME to relieve the pressure. Refer to the PRESSURE RELIEF PROCEDURE (page 6) described in the pump manual.

• ALWAYS keep the tip guard in place while spraying. The tip guard provides some protection but is mainly a warning device.

• ALWAYS remove the spray tip before flushing or cleaning the system.

• Paint hose can develop leaks from wear, kinking and abuse. Aleak can inject material into the skin. Inspect the hose before each use.

• NEVER use a spray gun without a working trigger lock and trigger guard in place.

• All accessories must be rated at or above 2800 PSI/193 BAR. This includes spray tips, guns, extensions, and hose.

HAZARD: HAZARDOUS VAPORS

Paints, solvents, insecticides, and other materials can be harmful if inhaled or come in contact with the body. Vapors can cause severe nausea, fainting, or poisoning.

PREVENTION:

• Use a respirator or mask if vapors can be inhaled. Read all instructions supplied with the mask to be sure it will provide the necessary protection.

• Wear protective eyewear.

• Wear protective clothing as required by

coating manufacturer.

NOTE TO PHYSICIAN: Injection into the skin is a traumatic injury. It is important

to treat the injury as soon as possible. DO NOT delay treatment to research toxicity. Toxicity is a concern with some coatings injected directly into the blood stream. Consultation with a plastic surgeon or reconstructive hand surgeon may be advisable.

HAZARD: EXPLOSION OR FIRE

Solvent and paint fumes can explode or ignite. Property damage and/or severe injury can occur.

PREVENTION:

• Provide extensive exhaust and fresh air introduction to keep the air within the spray area free from accumulation of flammable vapors.

• Avoid all ignition sources such as static electric sparks, open flames, pilot lights, electrical appliances, and hot objects. Connecting or disconnecting power cords or working light switches can make sparks.

• Do not smoke in spray area.

• Fire extinguisher must be present and in good working

order.

• Place paint pump at least 20 feet from the spray object in a well ventilated area (add more hose if necessary). Flammable vapors are often heavier than air. Floor area must be extremely well ventilated. The paint pump contains arcing parts that emit sparks and can ignite vapors.

• The equipment and objects in and around the spray area must be properly grounded to prevent static sparks.

• Use only conductive or grounded high pressure fluid hose. Gun must be grounded through hose connections.

• Power cord must be connected to a grounded circuit.

• Always flush unit into a separate metal container, at low

pump pressure, with spray tip removed. Hold gun firmly against side of container to ground container and prevent static sparks.

• Follow the material and solvent manufacturer's warnings and instructions.

• Use extreme caution when using materials with a flashpoint below 70° F (21° C). Flashpoint is the temperature that a fluid can produce enough vapors to ignite.

• Plastic can cause static sparks. Never hang plastic to enclose a spray area. Do not use plastic drop cloths when spraying flammable materials.

• Use lowest possible pressure to flush equipment.

GAS ENGINE (WHERE APPLICABLE)

Always place pump outside of structure in fresh air. Keep all solvents away from the engine exhaust. Never fill fuel tank with a running or hot engine. Hot surface can ignite spilled fuel. Always attach ground wire from pump unit to a grounded object, such as a metal water pipe. Refer to enigine owner’s manual for complete safety information.

HAZARD: EXPLOSION HAZARD DUE TO

INCOMPATIBLE MATERIALS

Will cause property damage or severe injury.

PREVENTION:

• Do not use materials containing bleach or chlorine.

• Do not use halogenated hydrocarbon solvents such as bleach, mildewcide, methylene chloride and 1,1,1 trichloroethane. They are not compatible with aluminum.

• Contact your coating supplier about the compatibility of material with aluminum.

MPORTANT E

LECTRICAL INFORMATION

Use only a 3-wire extension cord that has a 3-blade grounding plug and a 3-slot receptacle that will accept the plug on the product. Make sure your extension cord is in good condition. When using an extension cord, be sure to use one heavy enough to carry the current your product will draw. An undersized cord will cause a drop in line voltage resulting in loss of power and overheating. A14 or 12 gauge cord is recommended. If an extension cord is to be used outdoors, it must be marked with the suffix W-Aafter the cord type designation. For example, a designation of SJTW-A would indicate that the cord would be appropriate for outdoor use.

THE 9140, 9140S AND 9150 SERIES UNITS ARE PROVIDED WITH A NON-RESETABLE THERMAL OVERLOAD. THE 9170, 9190 AND 9210 SERIES UNITS ARE PROVIDED WITH A REPLACEABLE FUSE.

• Always disconnect the motor from the power supply before working on the equipment.

The cause of the overload should be corrected before restarting. Take to Service Center.

Do not use more than 100 feet of hose. If you need to paint further than 100 feet from your power source, use more extension cord, not more paint hose.

GROUNDING INSTRUCTIONS

This product must be grounded. In the event of an electrical short circuit, grounding reduces the risk of electric shock by providing an escape wire for the electric current. This product is equipped with a cord having a grounding wire with an appropriate grounding plug. The plug must be plugged into an outlet that is properly installed and grounded in accordance with all local codes and ordinances.

Improper installation of the grounding plug can result in a risk of electric shock.

If repair or replacement of the cord or plug is necessary, do not connect the green grounding wire to either flat blade terminal. The wire with insulation having a green outer surface with or without yellow stripes is the grounding wire and must be connected to the grounding pin.

Check with a qualified electrician or serviceman if the grounding instructions are not completely understood, or if you are in doubt as to whether the product is properly grounded. Do not modify the plug provided. If the plug will not fit the outlet, have the proper outlet installed by a qualified electrician.

This product is for use on a nominal 120 volt circuit and has a grounding plug that looks like the plug illustrated below. Make sure that the product is connected to an outlet having the same configuration as the plug. No adapter should be used with this product.

PURGING & PRIMING

PURGING AND PRIMING THE PUMP

1. Place a full container of paint underneath the suction tube.

2. Secure the return tube into a waste container.

3. Turn the pressure control dial to maximum pressure (+).

4. Turn the PRIME/SPRAY knob to PRIME.

5. Plug in the sprayer, and move the ON/OFF switch to the ON position.

6. Switch the pump to OFF (O).

7. Remove the return tube from the waste container and place it in its operating position above the container of paint. Use the metal clip to bind the two hoses together.

Your sprayer is now purged. Move to Purging and Priming the Spray Hose.

The unit will begin to draw paint up the suction tube, into the pump, and out the return tube. Let the unit cycle long enough to remove test fluid from the pump, or until paint is coming from the return tube.

PURGING AND PRIMING THE SPRAY HOSE

1. Unlock the spray gun and turn PRIME/SPRAY knob to PRIME.

2. Trigger and HOLD the spray gun into a waste container.

3. While holding the trigger, switch the pump ON (l).

4. While holding the trigger, turn the PRIME/SPRAY knob to SPRAY. Hold the trigger until all air, water, or solvent is purged from the spray hose and paint is flowing freely (read warnings below).

Keep hands clear from fluid stream.

Using a metal container, ground the gun by holding it against the edge of the container while flushing. Failure to do so may lead to a static electric discharge which may cause a fire.

If the PRIME/SPRAY knob is still on SPRAY, there will be high pressure in the hose and spray gun until the PRIME/SPRAY knob is turned to PRIME.

5. Release trigger, turn the PRIME/SPRAY knob to PRIME and turn pump OFF (O).

6. Trigger the gun into the waste container once more to be sure that no pressure is left in the hose.

7. Lock the spray gun off.

8. Thread the spray tip guard assembly onto the gun. Tighten by hand.

Your hose is now purged and primed. You are ready to paint.

PRACTICE

Be sure that the paint hose is free of kinks and clear of objects with sharp cutting edges.

1. Switch the pump ON (l) and turn the PRIME/SPRAY knob to SPRAY.

2. Turn the pressure contol dial to its highest setting (+). The spray hose should stiffen as paint begins to flow through it.

3. When the motor shuts off, unlock the spray gun and spray a test area to check the spray pattern.

SPRAYING TECHNIQUE

The key to a good paint job is an even coating over the entire surface. This is done by using even strokes. Follow the TIPS, below.

TIP: Keep your arm moving at a constant speed and

keep the spray gun at a constant distance from the surface. The best spraying distance is 10 to 12 inches between the spray tip and the surface.

The pressure control dial can be adjusted up or down to achieve the desired spray pattern.

Good spray pattern

Paint tailing pattern

When enough pressure has built up in the hose, the motor will shut off automatically. The motor will cycle on and off automatically as it needs pressure.

ADDITIONAL TIPS

Overlap each stroke by about 30%. This will ensure an even coating.

When you stop painting, follow PRESSURE RELIEF PROCEDURE.

IF YOU EXPECT TO BE AWAY FROM YOUR SPRAYER FOR MORE THAN ONE HOUR, FOLLOW THE SHORT

TERM CLEANUP PROCEDURE DESCRIBED IN THE STORAGE SECTION OF THIS MANUAL (page 12).

Proper way to trigger the spray gun

Approximately

10 to 12 inches

Start stroke End strokePull trigger Release triggerKeep steady

TIP: The spray gun should be triggered by turning it

on and off with each stroke. Do not trigger the gun during the middle of a stroke. This will result in an uneven spray and splotchy coverage.

Heavy Coat

Do not flex wrist while spraying.

Light Coat Light Coat

TIP: Keep the spray gun at right angles to the

surface. This means moving your entire arm back and forth rather than just flexing your wrist.

TIP: Keep the spray gun perpendicular to the

UNCLOGGING THE SPRAY TIP

Do not attempt to unclog or clean the tip with your finger.

Do not use a needle or other sharp pointed instrument to clean the tip. The hard tungsten carbide can chip.

If the spray pattern becomes distorted or stops completely while the gun is triggered, follow these steps:

1. Release the trigger and lock the gun off.

2. Rotate the reversible tip arrow 180° so that the point of the arrow is toward the rear of the gun (CLEAN position).

3. Turn the PRIME/SPRAY knob to SPRAY.

4. Unlock the gun and squeeze the trigger, pointing the gun at a scrap piece of wood or cardboard. This allows pressure in the spray hose to blow out the obstruction. When the nozzle is clean, paint will come out in a straight, high pressure stream.

5. Release the trigger and lock the gun off.

6. Reverse the tip so the arrow points forward again (SPRAY position).

7. Unlock the gun and resume spraying.

If paint still will not spray from the spray tip, follow the other steps on the next column.

Under pressure, the spray tip may be very difficult to turn. Turn the PRIME/SPRAY knob to PRIME and trigger the gun. This will relieve pressure and the tip will turn more easily.

The following is a short list of minor difficulties you might encounter while spraying. If any of these occur, it will reduce the flow of paint, making your spray pattern poor, or paint will fail to spray from the gun.

• Clogged spray tip

• Clogged gun filter

• Clogged suction set screen

Follow the guidelines on this page to correct any one of these problems.

CLEANING THE SPRAY GUN FILTER

This filter must be cleaned every time you use your sprayer.

When using thicker paints, the filter might need to be cleaned more often.

1. Perform Pressure Relief Procedure (page 6).

2a. If you have a model GX-06/07 spray

gun, unscrew the fitting from the bottom of the spray gun using an adjustable wrench, making sure not to lose the spring.

2b. If you have a model GX-08/10 spray gun, unclip the

trigger guard from the filter housing by pulling outward from the filter housing. Unscrew the housing.

3. Remove filter from spray gun housing and clean with the appropriate cleaning solution (warm, soapy water for latex paints, mineral spirits for oil-based materials).

4. Inspect the filter for holes (see Hole picture, above). Replace if holes are found.

NEVER POKE THE FILTER WITH A SHARP INSTRUMENT!

5. Replace the cleaned filter, tapered end first, into the gun housing.

6a. For the GX-06/07, replace the spring and the fitting.

Tighten with an adjustable wrench.

6b. For the GX-08/10, replace the housing and snap the

trigger guard back into the housing.

CLEANING THE SUCTION SET SCREEN

The screen at the bottom of the suction set may also need cleaning. Check it every time you change paint buckets.

1. Remove the screen by pulling it out of the retainer with a plier.

2. Clean the screen with the appropriate cleaning solution (warm, soapy water for latex paints, mineral spirits for oil-based paints).

If after having completed all of the steps on this page you are still experiencing problems spraying, refer to the TROUBLESHOOTING guide (page 15).

The tapered end of the filter must be loaded properly into the gun. Improper assembly will result in a plugged tip or no flow from the gun.

SHUTDOWN

1. Lock the spray gun off.

2. Turn the PRIME/SPRAY knob to PRIME.

3. Switch the pump OFF, and unplug the sprayer.

4. Pour 1/2 cup water slowly on the top of the paint to prevent the paint from drying.

5. Wrap the spray gun assembly in a damp cloth and place it in a plastic bag. Seal the bag shut.

6. Place the sprayer in a safe place out of the sun for shortterm storage.

STARTUP

1. Remove the gun from the plastic bag.

2. Stir the water into the paint.

3. Check to be sure that the PRIME/SPRAYknob is set to PRIME.

4. Plug sprayer in and turn the switch to ON.

5. Turn the PRIME/SPRAY knob to SPRAY.

6. Test the sprayer on a practice piece and begin spraying.

Follow these steps when using latex paints only. If using materials that are oil-based, follow the long-term storage steps.

PREPARING THE SPRAYER FOR LONG-

TERM STORAGE

1. Fill a cup or other container with separating oil (approximately 2 ounces) supplied with the unit and submerge the inlet valve into the oil.

2. Place a rag over the spray hose port, and turn the switch ON (l).

3. When the oil has been sucked from the cup, switch the pump OFF.

4. Insert the pusher stem into the inlet valve. Make sure the pusher stem is inserted fully.

5. Wipe the entire unit, hose and gun with a damp cloth to remove accumulated paint.

6. Replace the high pressure hose to the paint hose port.

The pusher stem is designed to do two things:

• It holds the oil in the valve to keep the carbide

seat from rusting.

• Secondly, it will keep the ball off of the seat to

prevent any paint residue deposits that will cause the ball to stick to the seat. Paint deposits or rust formed on the carbide seat will cause priming and operation problems during repeated uses.

DISASSEMBLY OF THE FLUID SECTION

1. Remove the suction set.

2. Remove the front cover and the four screws that secure it using a T20 Torx head driver.

3. Remove the yoke screw and washer that secures the dowel pin. The dowel pin connects the yoke to the piston.

4. Using the pliers, pull the dowel pin out.

5a. For models 9140, 9140S, and 9150, rotate the pump

shaft so the piston is in the top dead center position. This can be done by pushing on the yoke. This is required to disassemble all the parts.

5b. For models 9170, 9190, and 9210, inspect the yoke

assembly and piston. In order to remove all the necessary parts, the piston must not be in the bottom dead center position. If the piston is at the bottom of the stroke, install the front cover and screws, turn the pump on briefly to index the piston, unplug the unit, and repeat step 2.

6. Unscrew and remove the inlet valve assembly using an adjustable wrench.

7. Remove the piston assembly by pushing down on the piston near the yoke.

8. Unscrew and remove the top nut using and adjustable wrench.

9. Remove the worn seals using a flat head screwdriver or punch. Remove the top seal from the top and the bottom seal from the bottom by pressing against the side of the seal and popping it out. Be sure not to scratch the housing where the seals are located.

10. Clean the area where the new seals are to be installed.

ASSEMBLY OF THE FLUID SECTION

1. Lubricate the new top seal with Separating Oil (P/N

0154908) or light household oil and by hand place the seal (cup side of seal down) into the top port of the housing.

2. Place a small amount of anti-seize on the threads of the nut. Place the top nut into the top of the housing and tighten with an adjustable wrench. This will drive the top seal into the correct position.

3. Turn the pump upside down. Lubricate the seal on the piston/seal assembly similar to the top seal. Place the piston/seal assembly into the bottom of the housing. Insert the plastic insertion tool and thread into position to properly seat the piston/seal. Thread fully until tight. Remove the insertion tool.

4. Install the new O-ring on the inlet valve assembly, lubricate with Separating Oil (P/N 0154908), thread into the bottom (inlet) of the housing, and tighten with an adjustable wrench. This will drive the bottom seal into the correct position.

5. Align the piston with the yoke. Arubber mallet may be

used. Be careful not to damage the piston.

6. Apply any type of household grease to the piston and yoke area to prolong life. Apply to the holes in the yoke where the dowel is inserted.

7. Install the dowel pin to connect the yoke to the piston. The piston may have to be moved up or down to do this.

8. Install the yoke screw and washer to secure the dowel pin.

9. Turn pump right side up and apply a few drops of Wagner Separating Oil or light household oil between the top nut and piston. This will prolong the seal life.

10. Install front cover and four (4) screws.

11. Install the suction set.
